I am interested in how "petite guerre" was conducted in any period. Are there ancient accounts of small actions that give an idea of composition of forces? In my mind I see small scale actions dominated by the myriad light infantry and mercenaries of the time - peltasts, cretans, numidians, thracians etc. How often would "heavies" engage at this operational level?
Would you guys allow me a little bit of self promotion ?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xN2bilWFizI
Anabasis is such a great read... and the novelizations available are so cool...
That was great! The rulebook looks amazing - beautifully set out and I personally love all the artwork we got a tiny glimpse of. I'm even more excited for its release now and my 4th Century BC Republican Romans are now firmly on top of the painting queue!
The movie "The Warriors" is something of a classic in my family, though most of them have no idea what it is based on. I'm currently reading Manfredi's "The Last Army" and thinking of adapting the idea to an African setting, with Masai mercenaries trying to get home after a job goes south in Unyamwezi.So yeah, another Anabasis fan here.
